Shoreline Amphitheatre

this one is a gimme for Hornsby's jumpstart chops which makes for a devastating affair with jer and the guys lockin' in.

Drums -> Space

Shoreline Amphitheatre

Laconic and textural, devils hang loose. Chasms of endless spirals of blank fear only to be boingy wackjob cyberjazz, menacing, for OG 90's heads

Uncle John's Band

Shoreline Amphitheatre

High spirited and activated septet playing. Lengthy tonal solo and manic 7/4 takeoff

Blazing steamroller, Hornsby, flutterbird PITB. Elegant, direct, emblematic of the late style.

The Music Never Stopped

Boston Garden

The jam builds and builds, off the meters by the end. Important TMNS!

big river's don't get much better than this, rockabilly power.
Mississippi Halfstep Uptown Toodeloo
May 7, 1977
Boston Garden

Happy birthday Billy version, and it's a nail-biter. The solo goes the distance, Jerry starts getting crazy, Devils pounding away too, thrilling stuff. Then the rio grandioh coda pushes this Mississippi to "there" territory. Chills!
New Minglewood Blues
May 7, 1977
Boston Garden

That opening cornell one is hot but so is this shit. Lion's den growl version.
Pretty Peggy O

Boston Garden

Yet another monster Peggy can't miss this one.
